Wilms' Tumor Gene (WT1) Competes With Differentiation-Inducing Signal in Hematopoietic Progenitor Cells
15 Apr 1998
Abstract excerpt
The WT1 gene is a tumor-suppressor gene that was isolated as a gene responsible for Wilms' tumor, a childhood kidney neoplasm. We have previously reported that the WT1 gene is strongly expressed in leukemia cells with an increase in its expression levels at relapse and an inverse correlation between its expression levels and prognosis, thus making it a novel tumor marker for leukemic blast cells. Furthermore, WT1...
